Four Winds Ranch: " Life on the Farm "

[Four Winds Ranch]

I am very excited!!! We might be getting a milk cow again!!! Not just one, but maybe 3!!!
Yesterday we went to look at a Jersey milk cow that is for sale in our area! I liked her, DH, not so much, as she will need a bit of work! But when we were getting ready to leave, the lady selling her said if we are interested, she would give us a killer deal if we took both her milk cows and the 6 month old Jersy heifer calf ( she will also throw in the rest of her straws of semen from a puebred bull)! For this area this IS a killer deal on Registered Jersey milk cows!!! I am soooo hoping we get them!!! The lady even offered to deliver for free and she will take payments!!!!!
IF we get them , there will be pics to follow!!!

I envy you! As a kid, I always visit my grandparents' farm during summer break. Now, those farms are gone Someday, I'll have my own farm and herb garden like you do Enjoy!

hope it works out, milking is a lot of work but I'm sure rewarding. Besides didn't your dh bring home several hogs not too long ago???

Yay!!! I have my new cows!!! The 2 cows are purebred Jersey, as well as the 6 month old heifer. The little steer is a Beefbooster X, but that is ok!!!
Tomarrow morning it is back to milking for me!!! I am all happy imagining the fresh milk, cream, yogurt, butter, buttermilk, cottage cheese, and oh so many different types of cheese I can now make!!!!
Here are my new babies!!!!
